Audits Linux logging, monitoring and intrusion detection on servers — journald persistence, rsyslog coverage and rotation, auditd baseline rules, file-integrity monitoring, off-host shipping, retention and out-of-band alerting — with read-only evidence commands, hardened reference configs, and an incident-triage quickstart.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Scope & Objectives Audit whether one running Linux host (or its config-as-code) produces, keeps, protects, and surfaces security telemetry. Eight domains, in priority order: 1. **Capture & persistence** — journald `Storage=` mode (volatile-only = logs die on reboot = finding), rsyslog presence and classic auth files (`/var/log/auth.log` Debian-family, `/var/log/secure` RHEL-family). 2. **Rotation & headroom** — logrotate coverage of key files, journald size caps, disk/inode headroom for `/var/log`. 3. **Event coverage** — the checklist of events that must be logged: auth, sudo, identity changes, cron edits, package ops, firewall drops, kernel, crash-loops, app-layer auth failures. 4. **Kernel-depth telemetry** — auditd installed, running, carrying a baseline ruleset (identity, sudoers, sshd_config, time-change), with rotation and space-survival policy. 5. **Integrity monitoring** — AIDE baseline + periodic check (or osquery), webroot watches, database-update discipline. 6. **Off-host shipping** — forwarding rules in rsyslog, journald→rsyslog chain, vendor agents (Datadog/Fluent Bit/Promtail) glob coverage; local-only logging = finding. …

How to install
mdr add as-foss/aegis-skills/aegis-logging-monitoring@sha256:cc2731e17c5b6c39The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.9702747, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
